Things dat Trivyully Annoy You (part whatever) *MOD WARNING IN OP* NEW

My back is slightly banjaxed so I couldn't reach into the back of the drawer.

Had lunch muscles obviously eased out (different seated position) and I was able to reach in no probs.

Seriously lads, this getting old lark is zero craic.

When you get an email that's not for you. You send it to the correct person, ask them to deal with it and inform the sender.

But they don't do anything.

Just spent a few days in NI

Man sitting at breakfast table noisy sniffing instead of blowing his nose. Put me right off my porridge

Driving back to Tipp and the amount of cars just sitting in the outside lane FFS, move TF if someone is behind you.

Fellow student constantly asking does anyone have X, can someone give me a copy of Y, but dead silent when you ask them a question. Numptie.

Acquaintance / friend of the family and neighbour died a few days ago. Just found out so went to leave a note for their family on rip.ie.

the lady in question worked in broadcast media for RTE all be it way back and wouldn’t be a household name unless you’d be of a certain pensionable vintage and some. That far back.

just looking at other comments and a particular ‘contribution’ from another RTE person, lavish in their praise of her but choosing the condolence section as a platform to write a general dig in at the more current and recent talent of RTE. I’m just thinking, do her family want to see that ? Is it necessary ? Can’t you just retain class, dignity and respect and say… “ I knew xxxx 40 years, had the upmost respect as a broadcaster and friend, will miss the chats, good times and condolences to her family “

it actually strikes as a bizarre, ill judged diatribe… boards.ie ok, but rip.ie, not so 🫣

Trainer in my IT course told the group to look at P1. 1-3 and P3. 1-3 ahead of the assessment this week. Speaking to parts of that group during the week jokingly mentioned it, none of them 'heard' that and one accursed me in a roundabout way of lying to them.

Another ta in this vein, trainer says something like "you can repeat this task as often as you like, there doesn't seem to be a limit on the number of reps" ten mins later, "Mary, how many times I can do that task for practice?" half an hour after that "How many times can I do the task before it stops me"?😤😤😡

I regularly get emails destined for a Mexican concert events organising company. I fwd'ed the first few and let the sender know too, got no acknowledgement, let alone thanks. So now I know how much transport/insurance/venue costs for (mostly obscure) tours. ^_^

I've been getting someone's itemised eir phone&broadband bills in the post for well over 3 years. I've texted the intended recipient twice, returned to sender with NOT KNOWN AT THIS ADDRESS countless times, written to eir... and STILL get them. Next step GDPR privacy issue, there's clearly a process that doesn't work. (jjust one, yiz all say >_<)

Wordle. It says my current streak is 1 , which means I must have forgot to do it yesterday.

When I'm walking along the central aisle of the supermarket and someone comes whizzing out of one of the side-aisles with their trolley like they're one of the emergency services and expect the waves to part in front of them. I feel like 8 or 9 times out of 10 I'm the one who has to take evasive action.

People who don't know how to package fragile items.

I found a sealed copy of an OOP LP I wanted. Reasonably good price. Photos showed it sealed and in immaculate condition.

It arrived today in a large padded envelope with no cardboard packaging of any sort used. The sleeve which was blemish-free in the listing photos now has several creases on both sides. Totally avoidable. I just don’t get it. Why package in such a flimsy way? Records need to be packaged in cardboard mailers with at least two stiffeners.

When referees don’t award clear penalties.

This is a driving one ok - the people that don’t ‘mirror signal manoeuvre’ are slightly annoying. Those who indicate as turning.

But the one that sends me into a rage. Is lazy road positioning. Specifically when I am on one of the roads out of my housing estate.

Grand wide road it is. But when I see the driver ahead sit awkwardly betwixed and between - not leaving enough space for a car on the other side. Annoys me normally and I mutter ‘road positioning’.

But when I am in a hurry it sends me mad altogether. Even worse if the car blocking is turning right.

Even getting annoyed thinking about it - two or three foot of space not used.
